Hi all, I always used NX programming features relying on Visual Studio and VB libraries.
Recently I started looking into Python, mainly to exploit the tools offered by several precompiled libraries that are very useful.
I'd like to be able to run scripts built outside of NX, using Visual...
I'm writing in VB a tool that needs to perform a series of modeling operations starting from a CAD template part that is given as input (it is manually modelled by an operator before the use of the automatic tool).
For a series of reasons i need to be sure that the part that I am using as...
Hi, I am a NX10 user. (10.0.3)
I am currently working on a Reverse Engineering task. I need to import the reference data to start a reverse engineering process in Siemens NX 10. My data is a point cloud in .ply format. The cloud, however, has also RGB data associated with each point and I need...
Hi! Another question (I guess you are all hating me at this point, with all these questions)..
I built a tool to select a few faces from a part (let's call it example.prt) and to save the Nxopen.face.tag of the selected faces in a txt file.
My idea was to use this file and the TAG contained...
Hi all! I need to launch a DLL that i wrote from batch.
I found something on multiple forums and on nxjournaling.com, but not quite the information that i need. I have a few questions:
The best thing would be to launch a DLL (simuling the CTRL+U command within NX) that could interact with a...
Hi all!
I have another question for you: I am currently trying to write a piece of code in NX open VB that performs these operations: (once again, I am a beginner)
- Open a part (DONE)
- get the collection of the STLs of a part (DONE)
- cycle through every single STL and ask the user to...
Hi, i am trying to call/use the deviation gauge analysis tool in NX Open to measure the distance between a set of surfaces and a set of facets (STL) imported in Siemens NX.
Is there a way to have access to have access to a numerical value describing the distances between the couples of points...
Hi all,
I am trying to design a tool that allows me to automatically modify dimensions of an archetypal CAD model using data obtained by an algorithm (therefore leaving geometric constraints untouched, but changing its size). The ultimate purpose is to use NX to extract data from the CAD...
Hi, I need to use NX OPEN to build a tool to extract data from STL files and modify a CAD model according to the data extracted from the STL.
One of the first operation that i need to perform is the detection of primitives. I tested it directly on STL (not with OPEN, just using the software)...
Hi, i am a new user of the forum.
I am currently planning an activity on siemens NX that involves the design of a tool with new reverse engineering features within NX.
I am oriented towards the use of SNAP to build this tool, and i started reading the guide for beginners, but i also need to...
